Tiger & Dragon [Board Game]

Experience the thrill of a thousand battles with Tiger & Dragon—a game you’ll want to play again and again

Unleash your inner martial arts master in Tiger & Dragon, a thrilling tile-based strategy game from Arclight Games and Oink Games, inspired by the traditional Japanese game of Goita. Designed for 2-5 players, this fast-paced game (approximately 20 minutes) is perfect for ages 8 and up, offering endless replayability with its dynamic gameplay and strategic depth.

Game Overview
Dive into a kung fu showdown where players engage in waves of attack and defense, using 38 beautifully crafted, Mahjong-style tiles (36 numbered tiles from 1 to 8, plus a Tiger and a Dragon). Your goal? Be the first to empty your hand to score points based on one of ten unique Battlefield Cards, each introducing distinct scoring conditions to keep every game fresh and exciting. The player with 10+ points at the end of a round (or a team with 15+ points in team mode) claims victory!

Gameplay Highlights  

• Strategic Tile Play: Attack by playing a tile, and defend by matching it exactly (or use the Dragon for odd-numbered tiles and the Tiger for even-numbered tiles). If all opponents pass, place a tile face-down for bonus points and attack again!
• Dynamic Battlefield Cards: Ten unique cards alter scoring and strategy, from rewarding high-numbered tiles to challenging players to end with specific tiles for massive points.  
• Bluff and Tactics: Choose when to defend or pass, outwitting opponents by holding back key tiles or predicting their moves.  
• Team Play Option: Play 2v2, with teammates sitting across from each other, working together to outmaneuver the opposition.  
• Satisfying Components: Chunky, high-quality plastic tiles deliver a tactile, clacking experience, complemented by player boards, score chips, and a start player marker.
